Brussels sprouts, 500g

Store
Keep Brussels sprouts unwashed in the fridge crisper drawer. If they’re on the stalk, they’ll keep a bit longer. Use within a few days for best flavour.

Prep
Trim the stem end and remove any loose or damaged outer leaves. Rinse just before using. Larger sprouts can be halved for even cooking.

Eat raw or cook
Brussels sprouts can be thinly sliced raw into salads or slaws. They’re also great roasted, sautéed, or steamed. Roasting brings out sweetness and reduces bitterness.
